Sunhowers for Fuel.

1t will probably curdlc the blood Of
the aesthetic reader to learn that the
superb and leoninc sun1ower is grown
out West for fuel. They have been
raised in Russia and Tartary for centu.
ries for that purpose, but their intro
duction with us is of recent origin. Out
in Dakota they are planted like corn.
They arc harvested in two parts, the
seed heads being cut off and put away
in corn crib, and the stalks piled in a
shed. When cut in the right time, the
stalks when dry are hard as oak, ary
make good hot fire, while the ses,i
heads, with the seed in, make q letter

being very rich in oil, will burn better
and longer, bushel for bushel, than

tensivcly cultivated in certain sections
for the seeds, which are used to feed
fowl. - Scientific American.

The church was filled with a thick
black smoke, through which the only

was torn from its mothers arms and
flung about six PAGES from her; a

From that day to this, the energies of
the paper have always been directed
to, and identified with, the advance
ment of the states best interests; it
has grown with its growth and shared

1t is no wonder that the Free Press
claims the right to add to the glory of
being the oldest, the even more hon
orable title of being the best paper
the best for the merchant, mechanic,
farmer, the best for the family, and
when quantity and quality of matter
is considered, beyond question the
cheapest.

ciated press news, quotations of the
produce, stock and money markets,
congressional, legislative and state
news, and all the news of the world,

err number of the best known authors

Its circulation is enormous-exceed-
ing one hundred thousand copies per

to be regarded as one of the leading
weekly newspapers of America.

the white man in the United States is
deteriorating in size and weight. As
the general result it WAS found that
the average height of New Englanders
is 5 feet 8 LIZ inches and of southern
ers 5 feet 10 inches. The average
weight of Americans is between 155
and 100 pounds. Mr.. Atkinson also
discovered that the average weight OF
men in this country have increased
perceptibly since the war. He is con-
WINGED that Americans are increasing

assemblage than scores OF gatherings,
demon mated conventions, which
challenge public attention somewhere
in the country every year. Its princi-
pal object will be to induce congress
to take measures to prevent the adult
teration OF foods and medicines. Its
mission is, therefore, in every sense
worthy and deserving OF wide sympa.

which it would breast is far more ex.
tinsive and detrimental to the Amer.

one that cannot possibly divide men
